It looks as though we are missing "/opt/local/lib/kde4/okularGenerator_poppler.so", I'll try to figure out why this plugin is not being built.

The problem is that the "poppler" port does not come with Qt support by default. I was able to get PDF support to work in okular by:

  • building poppler with +qt4 +quartz
  • rebuilding kdegraphics4

I would be in favour of having poppler build with qt4-mac support by default.

The other option is to test for the correct poppler files in pre-configure of kdegraphics4.

Let me know if this is still an issue in KDE 4.5.

I've just experienced this with kdegraphics4-4.5.2 on Snow Leopard.
